A model, analysis, and protocol framework for soft state-based communication
1999
Proceedings of the conference on Applications, technologies, architectures, and protocols for computer communication - SIGCOMM '99
Soft state" is an often cited yet vague concept in network protocol design in which two or more network entities intercommunicate in a loosely coupled, often anonymous fsshion. Researchers often deline this concept operationally (if at all) rather than analytically: a source of soft state transmits periodic ?efresh messages" over a (lossy) communication channel to one or more receivers that maintain a copy of that state, which in turn "expires" if the periodic updates cease.
